New Fenière extension nearly ready for service

Modern technology is moving into the historic setting of the Salle de la Fenière.

Those of you who have had meetings at the Château de Cadarache over the last few months may have wondered what all the construction activity was about. Well, last Friday, after only four months of construction and despite adverse weather conditions, the CEA Technical Services, ITER Logistics and IT met for a final technical inspection of the new Fenière building, before its official opening.

This new building, which is a joint initiative between CEA and ITER, will host some of the large official meetings that take place at Cadarache. Its 270 square metres can accommodate up to 110 participants, and it has been equipped with cutting-edge video-conferencing equipment, wifi and other high-tech meeting equipment.

The building will be operational for the next ITER Council Advisory Committee meetings in May. ITER will have priority in reserving space there until our new, permanent building on the ITER site is ready for use.

More information on how to book this building for your future meetings will be published in Newsline soon! return to Newsline #78
